The first blast of the stormthrew th® ship on her beam ends.and the sea made a complete breachover the hull, washing the deckclear. The rush of the tremendousbody of water over the decks workedbavoc among the rigging, and themasts swayed and tottered as thoughabout to fall. One of the seamen,named J. Auger, was assisting iafurling the mizzen topsail when thecrash came on the deck. The shockwas felt so strougly aloft that hewas shaken from his perch and fellinto the sea. He made a struggletoswim after the vessel, but noth-ing could be done to save him andhe was drowned. He was onlytwenty years of age and a native ofFrance.For nearly ten days the hurricanecontinued without intermission, andduring that time the vessel driftedvack nearly to the Cape again.Then came a day of fair weather,but the next morning saw the stormin all its fury again. The seas oncemore were washing over the vessel,and one wave larger than the restswept over the buiwarks, smashingin the door of the forecastle andflooding the quarters of the men.As it went aft it took off the sky-light of the cabin, filling the roomsof the officers with water and dam-aving a quantity of provisions inthe storerooms. Many more sailswere blown away, and the men ofthe crew were so knocked about bythe storm and rolling of the shipthat only nine were fit for duty bythe time the storm subsided.The moderate weather was onlyfor afew davs, when it seemed thatthe storm bad gatuered all its forcesfor a final effort to wreck the vessel.All of September 27 the hurricanewas more severe than any of theprevious days, and the seas rose al-most ~like mountains. During theheight of the, tempest the midshipwheel rudder chain parted. At thesame time the relieving tacklesparted again, and the rudder wasalmost useless. Nothing could bedone to steer the vessel while thestorm lasted, and in that time shegot broadside to the seas. At timesit seemed that the vessel] would rollcompletely over. Then the cargobegan to move to starboard, and bythe time the rudder chains weretemporarily repaired the vessel hada heavy list. It was impossible toget the steering year in repair sothat it could be depended upon, andthe vessel was headed for the Falk-land islands.It took her nearly five months atStanley to make repairs, and onFebruary 7 last she sailed again.She had fair but variable weatheruntil within five bundred miles ofport, when a streak of calms was en-countered, and it took her twenty-two days to make port.
